Steve - take a deep breath and step AWAY from the keyboard.

You also said in your post, "I have made a complaint to the BBB about ADG and
TIE-FAST (aka Sierra Stream and Mountain, in Chico ca)." As Scott said, your
beef isn't with ADG, but with the store that allegedly forced you to buy the
incorrect size.

Where did I alleged that the stored forced me to buy the incorrect size?
The problem is with the neoprene booties. The problem has nothing to do
with the waders being tight in the stomach. ADG rescinded my warranty
because TIE-FAST claimed I insisted on buying the waders.
A) tie-fast lied
B) the holes in the feet have nothing to do with the waders being tight
in the stomach.

This is entirely a warranty issue of waders less than 6 months old with
a 5 year warranty that has been voided by the manufacturer. If ADG had
said "ok, send in your waders and we will give you a new pair of the
same sized waders" I would not be unhappy. The fact that ADG rescinded
the warranty makes them a part of this. I sent them a email saying that
A) TIE-FAST did not tell the truth about my "insisting" on getting the
waders
B) the problems with the waders were all bellow the waist
C) I also gave them the name of the person at Fish First who looked at
the waders, and confirmed that it is a manufacturer issue.



My recommendation would be to forget about it, and never give
any of your money to that shop again. Make sure your next set of waders are
nice
and loose, do some bending in them when you try them on, and go with a brand
like Simms or Orvis, although if you buy them too small you'll end up with
the
same problem.

BTW, I wouldn't have thought about Scott's
"trade-them-for-the-wrong-size-and-sell-them" gambit, but I'm not a devious
asshole troll.
